Make it a crime to borrow from loan sharks

The New Paper
Tuesday, Apr 01, 2014
One of my neighbours borrowed money from unlicensed moneylenders and defaulted on repayments.

Some time after the Chinese New Year, a loan-shark runner splashed paint onto three units of my HDB block, vandalising the doors and iron gates. I was one of the victims.

Such appalling tactics of loan sharks are common these days.

To nip the problem in the bud, the authorities should make it illegal for anyone to borrow money from unlicensed moneylenders.

Growing demand from borrowers continues to fuel the growth and proliferation of unlicensed moneylenders. If the demand is significantly curtailed, then the number of loan sharks will be reduced considerably.

In this way, there will be fewer incidents of loan-shark intimidation.

Teo Kok Seah

Making it a crime won't solve the problem....
Neither will imposing the death sentence on loansharks....
Just see the drugs situation.
Pap needs to have the political will to tackle the problem by allocating resourcea....and of course get to the root of the problem.....start by closing the casinos and Singapore pools outlet. You think this will happen?

In the second case, the woman was arrested on April 2 at 12.30am along Teck Whye Lane.

Investigations revealed that she is believed to have assisted loanshark syndicates to carry out series of loansharking harassments at Woodlands and Jurong West public housing estates by splashing paint at debtors' units, padlocking units' main gates and scrawling loanshark graffiti on the walls.

Upon her arrest, one mobile phone was seized in connection to the case.

Investigations against the suspect in the first case are ongoing while the suspect in the second case will be charged in court on April 3.

Any person who is guilty of providing false contact information to obtain loans from loansharks shall be liable upon conviction to imprisonment of up to 12 months.

First time offenders found guilty of loanshark harassment shall be punished with imprisonment for up to 5 years, a fine of not less than $5,000 and not more than $50,000, and shall also be liable to caning of not less than 3 and not more than 6 strokes.

Nip casino itch with visit limits

MyPaper

Friday, Apr 11, 2014


While hundreds of families have asked for a relative to be banned from the casinos, none have asked for visit limits to be imposed so far.

The reason could be that families seek help only as a last resort, according to the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG), which hopes more people will act early to help family members nip their addictions in the bud.

According to Lianhe Zaobao, a total of 928 visit limits were issued between June last year and the end of last month.

The Casino Visit Limit was introduced last year as a social safeguard for financially vulnerable locals who frequently visit the casinos. It sets a cap on the number of times per month that a person can visit casinos at the integrated resorts.

It exists alongside the Casino Exclusion system, which can be used to completely ban certain individuals from entering the casinos.

There are currently 1,720 people under family exclusion orders, which were applied for by their families. But NCPG has yet to receive applications for family visit limits.

NCPG director Yoganathan Ammayappan said families might not be looking at this option as they are seeking help only as a last resort, after having endured for a long time the problems created by a relative's gambling addiction.

He said they could be choosing to get an exclusion order because it provides the most direct solution.

He said the council is urging gamblers' families to seek help early and apply for visit limits.

NCPG estimates that there are 4,000 to 6,000 low-income earners in Singapore who are at risk of becoming addicted to gambling, and who enter the casinos between six and 10 times a month.

It has sent notification letters to nearly 2,000 people, requesting that they provide information on their finances and debts.

So far, it has imposed third-party visit limits on 584 people. Of the remainder, some were deemed to be not facing financial constraints; others are still being evaluated.
